This volume is the outcome of a modern phylogenetic analysis of the grass family based on multiple sources of data, in particular molecular systematic studies resulting from a concerted effort by researchers worldwide, including the author. In the classification given here grasses are subdivided into 12 subfamilies with 29 tribes and over 700 genera. The keys and descriptions for the taxa above the rank of genus are hierarchical, i.e. they concentrate upon characters which are deemed to be synapomorphic for the lineages and may be applicable only to their early-diverging taxa. Beyond the treatment of phylogeny and formal taxonomy, the author presents a wide range of information on topics such as the structural characters of grasses, their related functional aspects and particularly corresponding findings from the field of developmental genetics with inclusion of genes and gene products instrumental in the shaping of morphological traits (in which this volume appears unique within this book series); further topics addressed include the contentious time of origin of the family, the emigration of the originally shade-loving grasses out of the forest to form vast grasslands accompanied by the switch of many members to C4 photosynthesis, the impact of herbivores on the silica cycle housed in the grass phytoliths, the reproductive biology of grasses, the domestication of major cereal crops and the affinities of grasses within the newly circumscribed order Poales. This volume provides a comprehensive overview of existing knowledge on the Poaceae (Gramineae), with major implications in terms of key scientific challenges awaiting future research. It certainly will be of interest both for the grass specialist and also the generalist seeking state-of-the-art information on the diversity of grasses, the most ecologically and economically important of the families of flowering plants.

Download Monocots: Systematics and Evolution Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Monocots: Systematics and Evolution presents leading work from around the world on non-grass monocotyledons and includes reviews and current research into their comparative biology, phylogeny and classification. The papers are based on presentations at the Second International Conference on the Comparative Biology of the Monocotyledons, Monocots II, held in Sydney, Australia in late 1998. Many were subsequently updated or extended to take into account new information. All 72 papers have been peer-reviewed.

Foreword: Floyd Swink is the Senior Taxonomist at the Morton Arboretum, where he has served as the authority on our local flora and has published several editions of the Flora of the Chicago Region--the first edition in 1969, the second in 1974, followed by a revised and expanded edition with keys in 1979. The revised edition was co-authored by Floyd Seink and Gerould Wilhelm, also of the Morton Arboretum. Floyd Swink has been a student of the flora of the Chicago region for over 49 years. While studying and collecting plants in the field, he quickly became interested in their habitats, their associates, and their interrelationships with animals. Thus, over the years he has become a mine of information about these living organisms as they occur together under the varied stresses of nature and man, particularly urban man and his forces of land development. After his monumental "plants of the Chicago Region", he responded to numerous requests for a more widely useful set of "keys" to vascular plants based on their common field traits. With great enthusiasm he has produced a set of practical keys to the major vascular flora from Maine through Minnesota south through Missouri east through Virginia and back through Maine. The keys will include about 90% of the flora, but will not incllude plants unlikely to be seen by the typical student of nature study. It will be a handy tool for all, but primarily for the non-professional student of natural history. This is a field guide, handy to carry and quick for reference. Its most important feature is that the keys were constructed from field data and tested in the field, which results in a very practical, easy-to-use guide. This "tool of the trade" is what we might expect from an outstanding life-long naturalist of Floyd Swink's caliber.--Marion T. Hall--Director-The Morton Arboretum
